Contributed by CFRecords. Posted by aubin on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 at 11:00 AM (EDT)

Brian Redman of influential 90s straight edge hardcore outfit Trial and most recently of metal revivalists 3 Inches of Blood has passed away at 31. According to a report from local media:

The Pierce County Medical Examiner confirmed that Redman died early Sunday morning. Based on details provided by Detective Brad Graham of the Tacoma Police Department, Redman was thrown from his scooter after apparently striking a curb on the 2400 block of N. 21st Street, in Tacoma.

His bandmates in Trial posted this note:

I'll never forget Brian Redman, hard to forget a guy that was a walking party. No matter who came in contact with Brian, they were instantly attracted to him. He was one of the most sincere, sarcastic, witty, intelligent, talented guys that you would meet. Even if he was having a bad day, he put on a happy face to raise the spirits of those around him. He was a good...no, he was a great friend to all those that he cared for and cared for him.

Our deepest condolences to his friends and family.

The fact that you even said that there was a joke about his death is F*CKED up! I hope you feel guilty for even THINKING there was a joke about his death considering I AM HIS COUSIN. He might have well been my brother. Just so you know other people in our family have seen this. Thanks for making our misery even worse. Nothing is funny about him dying. He was the greatest man to walk this earth. If you had met him even ONCE you would feel the pain of his death. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Why is OK to trash someone in life but not when they're dead?

That's terrible, what a bummer. I see too many people flying around the streets of Denver on scooters with no headgear almost getting popped cause people are shitty drivers and don't pay attention to the bikes/cycles/scooters around them. Be careful, everybody, and wear a lid!
